I think the barbers on post are still open BUT I'm gonna pretend like they aren't and grow out my hair for once.
I've got a gnarly quarantine beard. I had a BIG trim scheduled the day after everything ended up closing here. It's far too large for me to handle myself at this point so I'm just gonna let it ride.
As for haircuts, I have an appointment April 11th. I don't know if it will happen or not. If not, I'll just embrace full on shagginess. I've been laid off so nothing matters anyway.

I assumed people could just wait until this situation gets better to get a haircut. It's not like anyone is going to care about your haircut while in quarantine or anything
I needed a haircut before this thing went down so...split ends it is for a while! Trying to moisturize it as well as I can.
My stylist is closed until May at the earliest, so I guess I'm just dealing with it. I would never, ever cut my own hair. It's way too complex to do that.
You guys realize the issue with barbers isn't the salon/shop, it's that the barber is standing in dozens of peoples faces for 30min - hour at a time? "Mine works from home" is the opposite of any kind of vote of confidence, cause you're not special, they're still doing dozens of their other clients.
I've always cut my own hair since I was in high school, I'm pretty good at it. Now that I'm not going anywhere I've let it grow. Maybe I'll continue to let it grow, get some Killmonger locks.
Yep, can't do that now, even if they work from home, it's not safe for them or you.
I wonder how many people buzzing their head are doing so because they like it or because they're balding.
Letting it grow till i can see my barber lol.
I have a small electric razor that i can at least line up my beard with

I have successfully cut my hair twice. I usually cut once every two weeks. I'm pretty OCD about it.
Came out good both times ;)

I'm at the point I'm just gonna let my partner have a shot at cutting my hair. Need to find out what the most fool-proof way is with just a Wahl trimmer..
I have been balding slowly since my early 20's. I am 32. But I also prefer it short because there is little to no maintenance needed.
Well, i had a bet with some friends to not cut my hair or trim my beard from the day hockey ended till it started again, starting from the first day of the Swedish playoffs....the playoffs never started so i'm kinda looking like a hobo now and will do so till the next season starts in mid september.
So far, nothing, since I happened to get a haircut right before this stuff started. But, I'm getting to the point where I'd at least want the back and sides touched up, so I'll either have to just let it go, or come up with a plan to do it myself or have my wife do it. Maybe we'll buy some clippers and try teach ourselves to do a serviceable taper. It would be nice to have that option and know-how, even when salons and barber shops are open again.
The ease of just buzzing it all off is pretty appealing, but I have a beautiful, full head of hair and have a big-ass head. So it would probably look bad, and I'm too vain. :)

Update.
I shave my head clean every day with a disposable razor. I just realized I can do it while riding my bike in my tiny home gym. What a time saver! I wouldn't do that if anyone else ever used that space, because while the bike is on a giant office chair mat, and there's literally zero debris, a skinhead shaving their head isn't the most soothing thing for cleanfreaks to think about. If the missus ever realizes I'm doing it, she'll flip out.

I was just giving the worst case imagery. I'm not stomping or romping anyone.
Are there any good YouTube tutorials for cutting your own hair? I was about due for a haircut when my area shut down and it's getting a little ridiculous. I'm pretty scared to just go for it, I like my hair a little long and I really don't want to get into a situation where I have to resort to a buzzcut to fix a mistake.
Just doing a shape-up myself but that's it.
I suck at anything hair related so me doing anything else will result in disaster.
I need my faaaaaade ):

I've been wrestling with this. I am scheduled for my every-four-weeks haircut this Thursday, but that is obviously not happening, so I am left with three choices: 1) use my clippers and basically buzz it off, 2) let my wife try to cut it even though she has no experience in that arena, or 3) let it grow. I am almost certainly going with option 3. I've always thought it would be fun to just go, like, a year without shaving or getting a haircut, and this seems like as good a time as any to start seeing how that goes.
Not a single damn thing! This is my only reasonable excuse to grow my hair for the first time in 10 years of military service, so you'd better believe I'm not bothering to do anything until actually required. Just really sad that I actually got a haircut like 3 days before the work from home directive came out; I could have had an extra 2 weeks of growth at this point.
Unfortunately, as soon as I get called into the office or tasked to deploy for something I'll take some clippers to it and go right down to a 1 (since I can't really tidy up my neckline properly on my own, I'll just make it super short until I can actually get to a barber), but until that point? Letting it ride!

I buzzed my head for the first time ever yesterday, I'm no longer a slave to Big Hair Product. My mom's reaction was gold, but I mean, it grows back. Just didn't want to deal with washing it as it got thicker.
